good but overly sexual

I bought this on a fairy-tale spree. I was buying to memorize for storytelling (for babysitting) to kids, and this was a shock!!! it is well written, but the words/themes/plots are NOT for kids. The short stories are definitely for adults and very sultry, steamy and sexy. I liked it, but not what I intended it for. I'd say if your library has it, go read it before you spend the money.
